- NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE TO MP MACHINERY AND TESTING LLC The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with MP Machinery and Testing LLC, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) Soliciting From a Single Source, a Wave length Measurement System with the following specifications: NIST requires a contractor that has design knowledge for the instrumented strikers that have been used to collect previous data in the NIST Charpy Program. The four existing strikers were design for use with Tinius Olsen Charpy model 74 and 84 impact machines (358 J and 407 J), a model 9000 MP Machinery Charpy machine (900 J), and a model 8000 MP Machinery (with two different striker geometries). We now require an instrumented striker to be designed and built for a Tokyo Koki 359 J machine that is fully consistent with the design and performance of the instrument strikers that we now use. The services required include: -Design an instrumented striker for our Tokyo Koki Charpy impact machine that performs in a manner very similar to our two existing strikers (on other Charpy impact test machines). -Produce the instrumented striker. -Submit the instrumented striker for acceptance testing, and documentation of strain gage type and position. Based on market research, NIST has not identified any other sources that can provide the required product. If NIST identifies no other capable sources by September 10, 2012, NIST will issue a firm-fixed price purchase order on or about September 10, 2012 to MP Machinery and Testing LLC (a small business). Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement, in writing, no later than the response date. Written responses to this synopsis shall contain sufficient documentation to establish a bona fide capability to fulfill the requirement. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 332999, and the size standard is 500 employees. A determination by the Government whether to compete the proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. This notice of intent is not a Request for Quotation (RFQ). No solicitation package will be issued. Inquiries will only be accepted via e-mail to christine.rogge@nist.gov. No telephone requests will be honored.
